YEONG WAITED PATIENTLY FOR Eun-ae who was still in the middle of her ice skating class after he finished his boxing class early. They always tried to finish their classes to see the other when they had the chance too and they were willing to wait however long their lessons took just like how Yeong is doing for Eun-ae.
Her private tutor stood beside him, watching the girl intently and carefully. The woman cared for her deeply to not be protective over her wellbeing. She looked at the girl like she was her own daughter and she always thought the same way about Yeong about being one of her children.
"Are you looking after her right?" Ms. Kim couldn't help but ask the male beside her who stared at his best friend with a distant look before chuckling.
"My parents asked me that question this morning and now you are," he replied with a unreadable expression. "And my answer as usual is: Of course, I am. She's my best friend." Even though Ms. Kim couldn't read his face, she knew his own statement didn't feel right, but she didn't want go any further as Eun-ae skated toward them.
"I'm done with my routine, Ms. Kim," she took note on how Yeong was closed off to himself as he got both of their bags. "Were you two talking about me?" She pouted playfully before wincing after Ms. Kim hit her on the head.
"Stop, playing around and get dressed," Ms. Kim nodded over to the door where Yeong was waiting at. "He's waiting for you." The girl simply nodded as she headed to the locker room.
Once she changed into her uniform, she quickly headed over to Yeong and tried to take her bag from him but he put it out of her reach which I mean he raised over her head.
"Yah! Give it to me! I can carry it my myself." She grumbled as she reached her arm up, jumping. Yeong smirked slightly as he simply placed his arm in front of her making her sigh, reluctantly looping her arm around his. "I hate you."
"You love me." He chirped as they walked to their room where the others were. The girl rolled her eyes, she walked ahead of him to sit down on one the couches in their private room.
"I'm just glad I'm done with my lessons," she groaned making the others laugh as Yeong sat beside her and she looks up at their friends. "Do any of you have anymore classes left?"
"Nope." He-ra answered as well as Woo-jin who had nothing left on his schedule. Eun-ae didn't bother needing Yeong's answer since their schedules were around the same time and finish at the same time, courtesy of their parents wanting them to stick together all the time.
Eun-ae looked at her other best friend who checked his watch. "At 4:00. Social Studies."
She nodded as she ate a grape. "Bummer," she stated and turned to Yeong who ate a grape himself. "Are you busy tomorrow?"
Yeong glanced over to her. "My father wanted me to join him in a meeting with some of his colleagues," she pouted slightly before he patted her on the head. "But he hears that I'm with you, he won't mind at all." She laughed lightly at his blunt voice while the others just stared at them.
Woo-jin and Ri-an could only smile at them while He-ra only stared at them with envy and jealousy. Everyone in their group knew that the two were made for each other when they first met them, they were just shocked that the two weren't together yet.

"So, when asked me if I was busy today, you just wanted me to watch you do ballet?" Yeong questioned his best friend with narrowed eyes as he watch her stretch her legs.
Eun-ae stopped mid stretch to look at him and grinned sheepishly. "Sorry," she replied. "I didn't want to be here alone to because my competition is coming soon and I needed someone to watch my routine."
"Why didn't you ask your trainer or Jae?"
"Well, my trainer is at home sick," she muttered, huffing out air as she stood up. "And you Jae is on a trip with her fiancé." Hwang Jae was Eun-ae older sister who was currently engaged and was living her life in America.
"You've heard of voice call right?" Yeong questioned her sarcastically.
She glared at him. "If you don't want to be here, you can leave," she pointed to the door. "The door is right there, you know."
Seeing how her mood was very tense, he decided to stop joking. "Okay, okay. Let's just get your routine done." He saw how her frown quickly turned to a smile as she went over to her phone to play the music, but a text popped up on their phones.
"Did you just get a text from He-ra saying that we should hang out and celebrate Jae-i's arrival?" Yeong asked.
"Yep," Eun-ae answered as they looked at each other. "Do you think it's going to end well?"
"Nope."
